How does one implement effective foreshadowing?Your comments are definitely helpful for an omniscient third-person viewpoint, or even a first-person "memoir" of sorts, but considering that the most popular viewpoint today (and the one I write in the most) is limited third-person, I wonder especially how one effectively foreshadows from that viewpoint. Saying something like "He'd never taste the whiskey again" definitely jumps out of the limited view.
